I feel that at this time, Li Yue was able to gather so many talents and master a huge army in less than a year, which was something that he could never dream of.

"My grandson is extraordinary, what an unexpected!"

Old lady Li said with emotion.

"Old lady, since the matter has been decided, let's go back first, now that it's late autumn, the cold will enter the body."

Li Qinsheng said with a worried face.

"Okay, I got it, go back...... Send someone to Huangzhou Mansion to inform Hu Yongzhi and tell him that we have sent someone over and let him guard it. ”

Old lady Li looked anxious and seemed to be preoccupied, and as soon as her voice fell, she left the city tower with staggering steps.

Li Qinsheng, who heard the rumors, did not delay, and quickly arranged for people to do it.

It's just that when he left, there was still a haze on his face.

At this time, 20,000 elite soldiers marched quickly under the leadership of Tang Yuan and fifty wolf-tooth soldiers, and the supply of grain and grass had already set off on the road.

Although the journey is only three days, the entire process of the army of tens of thousands of people, whether it is logistics supply or forward exploration, is very complicated.

The duration of menstruation also began to lengthen.

The junction of Wuchang Mansion and Huangzhou Mansion is the Mingshui River.

The depth of the river is more than one zhang, and the width is nearly ten zhang, which does not look very wide, and can be crossed by a pontoon bridge.

Sun Wenting frowned and looked across the river, where thousands of militiamen bravely held cannons, looking ready to attack at any time.

"Li Yue is really a talent, all the defenders in the place under his jurisdiction are very active, and there is no flaw to be found."

Sun Wenting said with a sigh.

"My lord, let me take someone to ride the pontoon bridge again, as long as I can get there, I will definitely be able to kill all those thieves."

Vice General Zhang said with a fierce face.

"You're still too impulsive, although the river in front of you is not deep, but the water is turbulent, the pontoon bridge is even more difficult to build, it is very dangerous to implement, and their hand cannons are really powerful."

Sun Wenting said helplessly.

"But it's not a matter of stalemate like this, if we wait until their reinforcements arrive, our advantage will be gone."

Vice Admiral Zhang said with a look of urgency.

"I also know that the original plan I made with Brother Wu was to use Fengyang Mansion as bait and directly destroy Li Yue's hinterland, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult."

Sun Wenting looked at the turbulent river and kept looking downstream, feeling extremely depressed.

But as the sky got darker and darker, Sun Wenting also knew that if he didn't cross the river as soon as possible, things would become complicated.

Otherwise, as soon as the reinforcements from Wuchang Mansion and Huainan Mansion arrive, their 70,000 elite soldiers will only be fat in other people's mouths.

"Order the three armies to camp along the riverbank, ten miles long, the horses do not unsadd, the soldiers do not unload their armor, and they are on standby at any time."

Sun Wenting looked at the sky that had already darkened, ready to fight hard.

Then the whole plan began to be discussed with several generals accompanying him.

After everyone discussed, a dozen generals ordered each of his subordinates to prepare to forcibly cross the river with more than a dozen points of their subordinates.

On the other side of the river, there were only a few thousand firecrackers and cavalry arranged by Hu Yongzhi.

Hu Yongzhi, who was riding on a horse, looked at Wu Liangyong with an indifferent expression on the side, and couldn't help but sigh.

"General Wu, seeing you like this, I have a certain mind, and I don't seem to be afraid of the thieves on the other side at all!"

Hu Yongyi asked with emotion.

"I think it's a fool's dream to block them from here, so it's better to let them in, lead them directly to Huangzhou City, and make plans there."

Wu Liangyong said indifferently.

Hearing this, Hu Yongzhi immediately felt that these words should not come from the mouth of the military general in front of him who had experienced many wars.

"Retreat without a fight, the door is wide open, wouldn't it be for them, the thieves, to directly occupy the Huangzhou Mansion? At that time, Huainan of Wuchang Mansion bowed his head and echoed what should we do? ”

Hu Yongzhi's face was full of shock, and there was a slight reproach in his words.

"Lord Hu, you have been thinking too much, the young master has already talked to me about the importance of being surrounded by mountains on three sides before leaving, and regards this mountain as a barrier to protect Huangzhou, so it is very strong there."

Wu Liangyong said confidently.

"That mountain is just used to prevent Zhang Xianzhong and other thieves, and the barrier made by the sudden surprise is not enough to stop the 100,000 army!"

Hu Yongyi said with a bitter face.

"It's not enough to stop them, but it's not a problem to drag him for ten days and half a month, after all, defending according to the natural danger is definitely an advantage."

Wu Liangyong said with a sneer.

"Okay, listen to you, after all, I'm only in charge of political affairs here, and you are the president of Huangzhou Mansion, it's up to you to decide!"

Hu Yong's face was helpless, as if he had seen the moment of defeat in the city.

Wu Liangyong, who heard these words, smiled indifferently and rode forward.

When he walked around the riverbank and returned, his face was a little uneasy.

Hu Yongzhi has been in the camp and has not left.

But looking at Wu Liangyong's appearance after he came back, he knew that things were not simple.

"General Wu, is something wrong?"

Hu Yongyi asked with an urgent look on his face.

"Master Hu, it's not good, they have made a lot of money this time, and an army of nearly 100,000 actually poured out of the nest, and chose nearly 20 points to build a bridge to cross the river, it seems that they want to come out of the nest."

Wu Liangyong frowned, and had already made a decision in his heart to attract Sun Wenting's troops to the Third Ring Mountain for another decisive battle.

And Hu Yongzhi at this moment also knows the seriousness of the matter.

If it really waits for Sun Wenting's 100,000 troops to cross the river and go east, then Huangzhou City will bear the brunt.

If Huangzhou Cheng is lost, then the entire Huangzhou Mansion will cease to exist.

"Hu Someone's disagreement with Lord Wu's words just now, a little ashamed, now let's do what Master Wu said!"

Hu Yongyi said with a ashamed face.

"Haha, Master Hu, don't say that, we will be loyal to the young master, and we will do our best, and what you said is not unreasonable, but the situation is in the people, not me."

Wu Liangyong looked helpless, and didn't seem to want to let people in, and this was just a decision that tended to be helpless.

After the two discussed the detailed rules, Wu Liangyong took half of the fire guns to take the first step and withdrew to the mountains on three sides.

And after Hu Yongzhi left the pad, he was responsible for towing Sun Wenting.

At three o'clock, Sun Wenting's ten-mile-long camp suddenly became brightly lit.

At one time, more than 70,000 people began to forcibly cross the river at more than 10 points at the same time.

And this time, the hand artillery on the other side of the river only fired a dozen symbolically and then withdrew.

The result of all the withdrawal was that nearly 100,000 troops crossed the river and marched east in one night.
